East Tennessee is an amazing place to live in the Springtime. Such close proximity to all kinds of gorgeous landscapes provides easy opportunities to discover something new each day.
Locations from beginning to end: Unaka Mountain, Gentry Falls, Beauty Spot, Bays Mountain.
Special guests: Tyler, Mark, Jacob, and the always photogenic Blue.
Attending the Indianapolis 500 is something everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. It is among the sporting events that one needn't be a sports fan to appreciate. Simply being there is a sensory overload. Of course, the race itself is loud and electrifying. But what captivates even more than the burning rubber and octane are the wide varieties of people who gather in and around the giant ring of asphalt.
Demographics range from diehard race fans and families to those just there to be the life of the party. Yet, the most noticeable commonality at the 500 is red, white, and blue worn in every conceivable way. And more than the occasional instance of public intoxication.
I finally have a website.
After years in the making, my photos have ventured outside the cold dark of my hard drives, and those megabytes are glad to be seeing the light of day. I guess you could say I'm pretty happy about it too.
This process has been demanding, but it has already been more rewarding than I could have imagined. There is something special about seeing all of your best work in one place and in the public eye.
In the galleries, you will see a variety of things. Photos taken in diverse environments, important people in my life, beauty that can hardly be contained, but more than anything, you will see over six years of personal growth.
I have scoured my archives to find the very best images that I have ever made.
Now, I must move on to the next task: making all of those photos obsolete.
While I have done some great work in the past, it is now time to transition all of my efforts to the future. I am ready to create new images. An artist who isn't actively creating anything isn't much of an artist.
That said, I am determined to improve every day.
I will start by photographing the things that interest me, which is practically everything...
I have no question that my best work is ahead of me.
This blog is where I will share my thoughts and show you what I am working on.
I am excited to share in the creative process with you.
